Cinematical, TV Squad's detached fraternal siamese twin, also at Comic-Con
by Danny Gallagher, posted Jul 25th 2009 8:26PM
Even though TV Squad's very own John Scott Lewinski is fighting his way through hordes of overweight Rorschachs and pre-pubescent Chun Lis to get exclusive interviews and scoops on the newest TV news at the San Diego Comic Con, don't forget that our partners-in-crime from Cinematical are also there covering the latest flim-flam in film.
The movie side of the annual pop-culture cavalcade opened with one of the biggest names in the history of film and what could very well be one of the biggest names in the future of film. Director James Cameron screened a solid 25 minutes of his forthcoming sci-fi epic Avatar. Blogger Todd Gilchrist got a hint of the plot and special effects movie-goers can expect when the film hits theaters later this year and said it "promises to be both hugely entertaining and technically groundbreaking." Man, that's got me worried. That's what they also said about Titanic.

Rated 4.1 out of 5 by 1063 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by JohnInEverett Just not as good as before For eleven years I have taken my family to the Sheraton the first part of December to see a show and do Christmas shopping. The last few years we've been staying two nights and taking advantage of the Macy's Holiday Shopping package. Every year we have a great time and look forward to doing it all over next year. But this year was different. I made reservations back in September/October for our stay in December. No problem with reservations. But when we arrived at 3:30pm on the day of our check-in (30 minutes after the check-in time), we were told the room was not ready. They went ahead and checked us in. Part of the Macy's package is you receive a gift card for each night you stay. We had reservations for two nights - so two gift cards (which is how it has been in the past). The guy at the desk only gave us one gift card. I asked him about it and he said it was one card per room booked. I explained the deal was per night and not per room. After some back and forth, he looked it up and realized his mistake and gave me another card. I should not have to explain the details of their promotions to the check in folks. Anyway... they took my cell phone and said they would call when our room was ready. Should not be more than an hour. We left our bags at the Bell desk and walked around the city. After an hour we came back- though we didn't receive a call. Still no room available. He said he would call us as soon as it was ready; that it shouldn't be much longer. We decided to go for dinner across the street. Still no call while at dinner. We came back a little after 6:30 to get a room - which we needed because we had tix to a show that started at 8 and needed to change. This time a young lady helped us. I explained the situation and asked if our room was ready. She looked at the computer for a while and then went in the back. After about 3 minutes she came back and said our "traditional" room was ready and started to process the keys. I stopped her and told her I made reservations for a "deluxe" room. She looked a little blank and went into the back again. About 5 minutes later she came out and gave me card keys to our room. To quote a Seinfeld episode, "it seems they are good at taking the reservation, but had some trouble keeping the reservation." Once I make the reservation I trust they can be competent enough to know the details without me having to argue with the front desk to get what I already reserved. And I was disappointed that no one wanted to make it right. When I said I was going to go to dinner while I waited for my room an offer to comp part of my meal in the hotel restaurant would have been nice, and would have gone a long way. The location of the hotel is good, and my kids love the pool. Our view from the room was nice overlooking downtown. I agree with previous posters about valet parking. As much as they charge per day and not having a self-service parking option, it seems reasonable that I should be able to call down for my car. We'll do our annual Christmas trip again next year. But I may look at what other hotel options are available downtown. December 6, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Steph Great Choice in Seattle Recently stayed two nights at the hotel while traveling for business. The staff, most notably, the concierge, was wonderful. Special thanks to the front desk who took care of shipping clothes to me that were left in the room. The location is great for walking to business as well as most tourist sites. There are very few hotels that deserve a five star rating- only reason for the four stars, Thank you for the great stay. July 31, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5 by Vegasgolf25 Don't Understand Once my room was ready, the hotel was great. However, I prepaid for a room and I requested an early check in with this new 24 Hour Experience option they offer. Upon arrival, I had to wait for 3 hours before a room was ready. Front desk could only say sorry and offer a $25 room F&B credit which really doesn't cost them anything. It's their policy to give rooms to first come even though I pre-paid 100% and was confirmed a check in time with their new program. I don't understand how that could happen. Regardless, I would stay there again assuming these instances wouldn't occur the next time. The location was perfect and hard to deny. December 6, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Joanne43 My Best Sheraton Experience I have stayed at many, many Starwood Properties all over the world. This was the best experience I have ever had at a Sheraton Property. The location, service, recognition, amenities and ease of travel made this routine long weekend holiday so much more. From the moment I stepped up to the reception desk to the time I had to leave it was the perfect escape. The club level ambiance, food selection, and personnel were amazing. Much more than you would expect. The upgraded room was over the top in layout, convenience, and luxury. I was already planning my next stay here before I even left. Will definitely make this location my go to getaway. Thanks so much! January 16, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5 by Pat1234 NO HOT WATER We stayed one night here, in the evening I called to report no hot water. The fellow called me back and told me someone would check into it, he offered a $30 discount which seemed reasonable. I asked him to let me know what was wrong and when it would fixed. Never heard anything back, my wife and kids would not use the tub or shower because the water was that cold. I braved a quick cold shower and it was cold. The next morning no hot water, no call detailing the problem. Did receive our express checkout with no credit on it. The front desk corrected that. It seems that they don't care about there guests as there was follow up. November 30, 2011
Rated 2 out of 5 by RLHSFO71 Move em in an move em out The hotel facilities are nice. The hotel is clean and the staff are reasonably courteous. The hotel is huge and I think because of the sheer volume they just are not able to cater to business travelers very well. They DO NOT recognize SPG Gold and Platinum travelers well at all. The check in lines are poorly organized and there is NO GOLD or Platunum check in line (even though they have a small sign). I'd stay elsewhere. February 11, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by jepjep pleased our room very nice. might need a second chair and a little larger bathroom September 7, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by RiverCajun Quality in the Heart of Seattle Easy access to light rail and monorail which means easy access to most of Seattle. Staff is very professional and friendly. Went out of there way to help. No issue became a problem. Staff consistently outstanding. Lack of King size room due to size of convention meant two extra sized double beds. Just not long enough for me. Slept one week on a diagonal. Likely would be a deal breaker if no king available on next visit. Amenities, size, etc met all of Sheraton's high standards. Food was fine. Seafood was particularly excellent. Certainly would recommend to others. August 24, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5 by NYC2011 Disappointing This hotel has a convenient location and I have stayed here many times on business trips. On my recent visit, when I checked out, I was rushing to pack and get to the airport and inadvertently left some clothing items in drawers in the room. I called the hotel immediately on realizing this later that night and they assured me that items left in rooms are catalogued and stored through a lost and found system (most decent hotels will do this). They assured me they would locate my items and contact me. After receiving no word, I called back and was told they had no record of my clothing items and nothing could be done to help. This is such a disappointment -- especially for a large, reputable hotel. This is both poor customer service and poor housekeeping practice. August 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by SunflowerRita Best experience ever at a Sheraton!! My husband and I stayed at the Sheraton Seattle for a few days in Feb 2012. It was the best experience we have ever had at a Sheraton! Our room was beautiful, the staff was wonderful & the concierge was extremely helpful. The location is perfect too. A great place to stay when you want to be in downtown Seattle close to all the action. We highly recommend this hotel. It is worth every penny! March 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by VancouverGolfer "Can't get closer to everything than this" ...were the exact words from my wife as we stole a one-day getaway in Seattle. The PAX Convention next door added some nice colour as we strolled through downtown, the market and the pier. The Sheraton Seattle is situated nicely in the center of everything and once you get your car squared away, you won't think about it again until you have to leave. Try the gym on the 35th floor, the view is fantastic. September 2, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Hpf30 Great service especially for large hotel Let. Me start at the end of my stay. I departed at 445 am in the morning to find a front desk armed with four agents ready to check out customers. Since my plane left at 7 am, I got up so early. This hotel knows guests are in a rush to catch early planes and they are fully prepared for business travelers. The hotel has undergone a nice renovation so the rooms are nicely appointed. The executive level is well staffed with a variety of food, breakfast and evening cocktails. The roof top pol and gym are well done. My only complaint is that I had to ask for a room upgrade as a platinum member. Otherwise a perfect stay February 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by redcat Exceeded our expectations This hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. Friendliness of staff was unexcelled. Room and facilities were impeccably clean and functional. Location was great. Rates were reasonable for the location. Being charged $27.40 daily for a refridgeratior was a surprise and a disappointment, but staff took half off when I complained. I definitely would stay here again. December 8, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by buckwheat Perfect stay in every way! This was an overnight stay on points for me. I was reuniting with my daughter who had been overseas for many months. When we drove up, the concierge was able to immediately help us with a couple of questions regarding our plans for the evening and was very welcoming. The hotel check-in was speedy and efficient. We were informed that we had received a platinum upgrade. We received an upgrade to a superb one bedroom suite that was huge and perfectly comfortable. The upgraded room had only one bed so we called down for a roll in bed. It arrived in 3 minutes and was a full mattress- not just a folding back-breaker! The room had excellent climate control and was very comfortably appointed. We heard nothing from above below or from the hallway and this allowed for a perfect sleep. This was a points stay and we had the choice of any of the Starwood properties. I am so confident that we made the right choice that this WILL be my choice whenever I come to Seattle! July 7, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by MaksDWTSfan Extremely comfortable Everything was simple in style, but of good quality, and everything in the room was well thought out and very comfortable, which is exactly what one wants in a hotel room. My first priority is that a hotel room be quiet, and even though my room was quite near the ice machine, the sound proofing was so good that once the door to my room closed, I didn't hear a thing, so could count on really relaxing in my room. I brought in and went out for food and drink, since downtown Seattle is such a wonderful area for that (so I doubt the hotel food would compete, nor should they really even try to). I needed a USB charger and had not brought a computer, so the front desk went out of their way to find and loan one to me. August 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by Medes Good stay Conveniently located a block away from the convention center and downtown Sheraton makes you have a good time. We liked everything with the stay. We wished the mattress and pillows were more comfortable, but they were still not too bad. Staff were courteous and we did not need to follow up any requests. June 11, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by KcmC Great location We regularly stay at this hotel - upwards of 4 times a year. The location and surrounding area is fantastic. The hotel does a very good job overall, with one exception - the valet parking. Being a busy hotel, with regular conferences and events, the valet parking is always congested. And as there is no self park, you are held hostage to the system. All other hotels we stay at where we use valet give you " full service" for your fee - that is, you have the convenience of calling down to have your car brought up so it is ready to go when you are. Unfortunately, this hotel cannot seem to manage this process. You cannot call for your car, you have to queue to request, and you are left standing around in the cold waiting. Not the last impression you want to leave with your guests. Until this is remedied, there will always be a bad taste left with many guests, and their ratings will be impacted. Othe than this one issue, the hotel is terrific. Great facilities, great location, and good rates. November 30, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by iadsea No Wall Street Journal The Sheraton is an overall good hotel, even if staying in the dated but remodeled Pike tower. However, I have requested a Wall Street Journal rather than the typical USA Today multiple times (as a Platinum Member) and have never had the request fulfilled. A business hotel should have the WSJ. October 22, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Danny45 great location.....courteous service Sheraton Seattle is in a great location - within walking distance of Pike Place Market and the light rail that you can take to the Space Needle and other sights. The front desk staff was very courteous and honored a request to place us close to our son and his family. June 8, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Eddie16 Second Home Almost every week, my wife and I travel to the Seattle and stay at the Sheraton Seattle. Great location, love the lobby, staff, and the view. They treat you very well here. Hope to use the "rooftop" pool next week! December 13, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by DateNight Nice "date night" stay My wife & I live in the suburbs near Seattle. We had Saturday night theater tickets at the Paramount, so we decided to treat ourselves & stay in town after the show. We had never stayed at the Sheraton, but heard nice things about it so we chose to stay one night there. The Sheraton is close to everything downtown - very convenient for our plans. The room was very nice, clean & comfortable. We loved the bed. They weren't very crowded (a snow storm was moving into the area the next day) so we didn't see too many other guests. Though we did hear a loud slam whenever a guest's room door would close. My wife used the health club the next morning & it was very nice. We headed home Sunday morning after breakfast amid the snowstorm. One thing. I was a bit shocked at the tab for using valet parking, well over $40+ including Seattle's hefty tourism taxes & fees. There are much cheaper public parking options within a block of the hotel, so I'll make sure not to use the valet again. But otherwise we had a very enjoyable date night stay after the theater. We just might do that again! January 18, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Jackie271 Late, But almost Worth the Wait. The only negative I have for the hotel is that our room was ready for us 2 hours later than promised by the front desk when we checked in. So disappointing because we made plans based on the promised time. November 29, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Raymond2343 Had a great time The Sheraton is a great place to stay. We ate at the Daily Grill a few times. The food and service is great. The last day morning breakfast the coffee was the worst we have ever had! June 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Freelance84 Great location Perfect location!! 6 blocks from Pikes Market, light rail extremely close, plenty of things to do around the hotel. Very clean hotel and professional staff. Will stay there again. September 10, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Lorraine21 Excellent service The hotel had excellent facilities and a friendly staff. However, I was surprised by the rather paltry bathroom toiletry items given the price of the hotel. April 22, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mike SWEET UPGRADE! Wonderful stay. Used a Suite Night upgrade and was upgraded to a massive corner suite with a kitchenette, living area, dining area, two full baths. April 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Evast Second Stay First, the average. The valet parking was average at best. On two out of three occasions, call down was not brought out. I had to go to the valet booth and request my car. Valet attendants were grim,unsmiling(redundant) and non communicative. Doorman were excellent. This was my second stay at this hotel in less than a week. My first room was located on the 30th floor and was very good. Second room located on the 11th floor was not as nice. Worn around the edges, needed updating. Now the good. Check in staff were excellent on both occasions. Smiling, talkative,and very helpful. Bellman were also very friendly and helpful. As mentioned above, room on the 30th floor very nice. I would recommend this hotel, request a higher floor and take a taxi!! August 20, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by BrutusB33 You absolutely cannot beat the value or SPG-Platinum Serivce I've been a SPG-Gold or Platinum member for the past seven years or so, and have stayed in SPG hotels worldwide. When staying downtown Seattle, you cannot beat the Sheraton for value, service, or proximity to area attractions. They frequently upgrade me and the front-desk staff are superb in their customer interaction. The other day I stayed there, and my wife and three kids were coming from out of town to join me during my stay. The hotel was nearing capacity so the hotel desk staff apologized they couldn't upgrade me to a suite, when I made the request. I told the desk agent, Trang, that I was only asking since my wife and three kids were coming to meet me, but we would make due with a rollaway and two double-beds. She disappeared to the office for a few minutes and without going into details, she and the supervisor (she has a short four-letter last name that starts with a "P", I believe) managed to problem-solve the situation and gave me a solution that TOTALLY exceeded my expectations for the two-night stay. They easily could have said that since there were no suites available, that their hands were tied, but they took the time and extra effort to take care of me and my family, which absolutely delighted us. I split my loyalty between SPG and another major international hotel chain. With that in mind, I always see SPG (and the Seattle downtown hotel, especially) outperform their competitors when it comes to taking care of their status-level guests. Thank you Seattle Sheraton. Your staff is a model for other Seattle hotels to follow! December 8, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by WorldTraveler Clean Modern Hotel, Great Location, Iffy Service The lobby and our room looked great, everything was sparkling, polished & clean and the location is fantastic. You can see the Market from the corner and there is shopping, the convention center, a movie theater and more all within a 1 minute walk. The internet was only $10, but can be VERY slow at times. The club lounge is really nice, nice views of the city, a great selection of fresh fruits and vegetables and very helpful staff. Overall the staff were helpful, however one day our room was just never serviced even though we had called and specifically asked for it to be serviced. We came back 6 hours later and it hadn't been serviced. We called back and asked for a new set of towels and after waiting 40 minutes, had to call again before they arrived. They did apologize, but there was no offer of a point credit or other compensation. Others have mentioned the noise problems in the room. In our room there was a interesting confluence of factors that led to a less than desirable outcome. The doors slam shut with incredible force and noise. Several times the person in the next room would leave early in the morning, creating a startling BAAM! and shaking the entire bed. Since the bed frame in our room was not securely fastened to the wall, any movement in the bed on the other side of the wall created an incessant telegraphing rattle through the wall. The thermostat also seemed to have a mind of its own. Overall, I liked the hotel, the location is hard to beat, but I really wish I could have gotten more sleep. January 30, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by havebusinesswilltravel Nice hotel, Nice location, Terrible service. Shame on me but I thought we would give the Seattle Sheraton another try. It seems like every time we stay here it's something. I generally have a good stay at Sheratons, and I am a platinum Starwood member so obviously I stay at Starwood quite a bit. All that being said I will NEVER stay at this hotel again unless God forbid it's the only option, then I will dread every moment leading to the stay. I booked a room at this hotel for 4 nights. At check in I was thanked for my platinum status but not offered a welcome gift, (points, etc.) and I was told we were in a room with a double bed. I was traveling with my wife, kids stayed home, so I asked for a king bed. The staff looked at the computer and said "I am sorry sir, but our king rooms are totally sold out for the entire length of your stay" I found this hard to believe so I asked, are you sure? "Yes sir, totally booked" so I pulled up my SPG mobile app and checked, there are all kinds of king rooms available. I show the gentleman what about all these king rooms, I can get online and book one right now that is available. Now I am pretty calm, but I was pretty irritated that I had been lied to. The desk person says "let me check" goes back behind the check in wall and comes back and says "we can put you in a king room" Honestly? After all that? Most hotels make me feel like staying exclusively at Starwood properties is a good idea and take care of us; The Sheraton downtown Seattle always, Always makes me regret it. Do yourself a favor and book a different SPG property. October 1, 2012

I've been working for a while with
JProgressBar using
WindowsLookAndFeel, but I found some major differences from the native progress bar:
Here is the native bar, in its regular state:
While this is Java's: (don't mind the size and border)
A sharp eye might see java's, top white color much brighter, and the green a little brighter too.
Now, the native indeterminate:
And Java's:
The flicker is much shorter, and much much faster (not shown). Also as the native could look like a glow, Java's looks much like a "comet" (with a tail, only from one side...).
And my final question, the blocked bar: Can this be done in Java?

The first thing you need to know is that neither of the two sets-- the one disc set of previously released material nor the collector's edition with an extra disc of live tracks, rarities, and demos-- has "Romance" on it. So you'll want to hang on to the now out-of-time Eponymous, or at least burn the song before you sell the disc. The second thing you need to know is that the second disc contains a favorite track from each member, and Stipe chooses "Time After Time (AnnElise)", quite possibly to piss off Stephen Malkmus (how's that for a little bit of indie arcana?).
After that, you probably know everything you need to know: how the band was started by four UGA students; how their enigmatic frontman occasionally sang in a mumble; how he wrote impressionistic lyrics that made obfuscation a virtue; how the drummer played close to the chest to give the songs their tightly wound tension; how the guitarist updated Roger McGuinn's Americana strum; how they released a five-song EP and then a near-perfect full-length debut in 1983, followed by four more excellent albums, a rarities comp, and the aforementioned Eponymous on I.R.S. Records, before signing to Warner Brothers; how during those years they embodied Southern locality, effectively pinpointing Athens, Georgia, as a hotbed of indie music; how they eventually traded that locality for national and then global generality, the music suffering as their scope widened; how you and me and maybe every one else who heard Around the Sun wished the band would either pack it all in or take $500 and whatever equipment they could carry and record their next album in some kudzu-covered barn in the middle of rural Georgia.
As disappointing as their Warner Brothers trajectory has proved, R.E.M.'s I.R.S. years were a period of sustained and boundless creativity, which makes And I Feel Fine inevitably enthralling, and hearing these songs in the context of a late-career retrospective feels undeniably rewarding. In short, there's not a bad song on this tracklist. Hell, there's not even a single merely good song on here. And I Feel Fine is 42 mind-blowing tracks from a band that helped to define and codify indie rock.
With startling obviousness, Disc 1 begins with "Begin the Begin", the Lifes Rich Pageant opener, and spirals outward with no regard for chronology. "Begin" is one of R.E.M.'s rock songs (the kind they tried to replicate on Monster), and it immediately showcases their elemental sound, each instrument carrying democratic weight and creating a surprisingly aggressive whole, topped by Stipe's alternately precise enunciations and Weird Harold growls and barks. R.E.M. were an intuitively tight unit, a fact that often gets lost in the legend: Bill Berry, Peter Buck, and Mike Mills were a power trio, all rhythm section but all lead, and their expansive musical vocabulary-- encompassing power pop, folk, soul, classic rock, and even punk-- proved surprisingly malleable over time. The group was as dynamic on an early track like "Radio Free Europe" and the gentle "Perfect Circle" as on the countrified "Can't Get There From Here" and deceptive rock songs like "Life and How to Live It" and "The One I Love", with its contradictory declarations of romantic devotion and manipulation.
If the band was a traditional, yet inventive, three-piece, who knows what Stipe was? Possessed of a roomy, plainspoken tenor that could rise into a plaintive keen, he adopted new approaches for each song, sounding withdrawn on "Perfect Circle" or mimicking a hick accent on "Can't Get There from Here". His fragile falsetto sounds like it could break on "Feeling Gravitys Pull", the perfect compliment to Buck's question-mark guitar chords. Stipe liked to adopt the posture of Southern enigma, but it was less a stance than an elusive ploy. He turned regional vernacular into lyrical puzzles, reading rural Georgia culture as poetry and philosophy, incorporating colloquialisms like "I will rearrange your scales" and "can't get there from here" (and later, more famously, "losing my religion") into lyrics that prized vexing obscurity and absorbing complexity, settling for no set meanings but only open-ended impressions. Remarkably, he sounded like he belonged to this marginal culture, writing and singing his songs with absolutely no class or intellectual condescension or any trace of irony, which seems sadly impossible today.
What's missing from Disc 1 are the album tracks that comprise the darker corners of the R.E.M. catalog, which, it could be argued, are the true essence of the band's legend. For this reason, the second disc of And I Feel Fine, heavy with less canonical songs but compiled with obvious care, proves just as revelatory and representative as the first: The tracklist presents a subterranean history of the band to complement the popular legend. Disc 2 has a palindromic symmetry, beginning and ending with band members' personal picks. "Pilgrimage" (Mills), "These Days" (Berry), and "Disturbance at the Heron House" (Buck) could just as easily have been first-disc hits, but "Time After Time" remains a strange avenue (although Stipe's affection for it seems understandable, like a mother's love for the runt of the litter). The second and penultimate sets of songs include alternate takes, demos, and unreleased rarities, including Hib-tone versions of two Murmur tracks, a wonderful slowed-down version of "Gardening at Night", and early demos of later tracks "All the Right Friends" and "Bad Day".
But it's the center of Disc 2 that's the true prize of the set: four live tracks that amount to a concert of sorts. These songs, three from 1983 and one from 87, show the band as a fierce and tight live act, Stipe commanding the stage (his lengthy spoken-word intro to "Life and How to Live It" is a beaut) and the band muscling (yes, muscling) up behind him with celebratory bravado. At so few tracks this section is just a tease, but it raises two important questions: First, in their storied two-decade-plus career, why the hell haven't R.E.M. released a live album? And second, when they do, can it be a double?

Loeb winner gets N.E. honor
David Lang, president of the Professional Fire Fighters, will receive the inaugural Citzen's Right to Know Award. Lang's group spent years seeking records from the Local Government Center regarding how insurance premiums were being used. The LGC fought the efforts of the center to prevent public scrutiny, with the New Hampshire Supreme Court ultimately agreeing with the firefighters' position, and the LGC was forced to open its books. Millions of dollars have been refunded as a result.
Also to be honored at the NEFAC luncheon here will be Hartford Courant reporter Don Stacom, who exposed misdeeds in a Connecticut police department, and the lifetime achievements of New England Cable News founder and GlobalPost co-founder Philip Balboni.
"NEFAC's mission goes on year-round," said coalition Executive Director Rosanna Cavanagh. "We have training programs for journalists on FOI (Freedom of Information) and media law, and we advocate for greater access to public records through friend of the court briefs and expert legislative testimony."
Likewise, the Nackey S. Loeb School of Communications Inc., headquartered in Manchester, offers many opportunities for journalists and the general public to expand their knowledge of the First Amendment.
Tickets to the event are available on NEFAC's website, www.Northeasteren.edu/firstamendmentcenter.
The awards luncheon is held in conjunction with the New England Newspaper & Press Association's convention and trade show at the Boston Park Plaza Hotel.

Just wanted to revise my review of Chanel No. 5. Over the years, this was one Chanel that I could never make my own, even though I liked the scent. It seemed to hover over my skin like a cool cloud rather than blending into my skin and warming up to my personal chemistry. One summer I tried the edp and fell in love with it. The florals seemed richer. I still find No. 5 a bit distant and formal, no matter how they try to update the image. But I don't mind that. For those who do, there is always the Sensual Elixir, which is more modern and very nice, too. I hvae yet to try No. 5 in parfum extrait. It's on my "to try" list. :-) I think you must find a concentration in No. 5 that works for you, as they all seem quite different.
I used to hope that one day I could wear something Chanel, as the women in my life who wear it wear it so well. No. 5 is the last of all the Chanel fragrances I'll even sniff sprayed into the air. It's chemical, harsh, and completely unsuitable for my skin and personality type.
I wore the edp for a very short while when I was 19, after buying it on a whim. It was not something I should have been wearing at that time. As I am now in my 20s, I can appreciate it more. If you like this in the edp or the edt, you should also try Hermes 24, Fabourg; though I like No. 5 much, much better. I hope to acquire the parfum.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I used to wear this way back in high school, so I thought I'd give it another try. I didn't like it at all this time around. Too old ladyish for me. Too stuffy. I much prefer Chanel Allure.
I just wanted to answer LindyLoo concerning the No 5 parfum. I don't think it is your chemistry that this parfum doesn't last on your skin, it happens to me too. Years ago, a tiny drop of the parfum would scent you for hours on end, this modern formulation just does not last and I think Chanel should do something about it personally.
It smelled like bug spray to me and was Way too strong!
FYI- the EDP smells sooooo much better than the EDT
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Yes, I'm one of the few people who can't stand this fragrance. I really tried...with all the history and tradition tied up in it and the classy associations (French fashion, Marilyn Monroe, etc.), I wanted to like it. But, it gives me a terrible headache and smells like bug spray to me. Not just because of my body chemistry - I have friends who wear it and they just reek! Maybe they're wearing too much and just a little wouldn't bother me as badly. I can't wear it myself, though. Must be all the aldehydes or something... my nose finds it offensive. : (
I love Chanel nº5. It is such a classic and by far, this is the best perfume I have ever bought. I can't stand perfume that smells really really strong or too sweet. This is just perfect. The smells last quite long and yet, subtle. It smells feminine and sexy, perfect for any occasion.
I love this fragrance. It smells so elegant, but sexy at the same time. I purchased a small EDP version of this to try and loved it. It does not smell like an "old lady" fragrance at all. I wear this fragrance with my pumps and feel just the right age, lol. It feels so luxurious on, as though I am being enveloped in layers of the finest cashmere. This is a must have for any fragrance collection.

Houston Astros (1-5)@
St. Louis Cardinals (5-2)
Sunday, April 12
Busch Stadium
Attendance: None
Game Leaders
L: Rodriguez
(0-1) 3.00 era
W: Lohse
(2-0) 1.13 era
St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Kyle Lohse tossed a three-hit shutout, retiring 24 straight batters at one point, to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 3-0 win over the Astros and complete a three-game sweep of Houston at Busch Stadium.
Lohse (2-0), a former two-time double-digit winner in the American League with the Minnesota Twins, fanned four batters to improve his ERA to 1.13 on the season. Lohse was 3-0 in four starts against the Astros last season, allowing 21 hits and seven runs in 26 innings.
"Kyle has really worked hard. He's a guy who has the talent and the perseverance to keep competing," Cardinals manager Tony La Russa said.
Khalil Greene went 3-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored for the Cardinals. Ryan Ludwick and Chris Duncan also had an RBI.
Wandy Rodriguez (0-1) pitched six innings in the start, giving up three runs on five hits. The 30-year-old Rodriguez also struck out four and walked three. Rodriguez made his first start on Tuesday against the Chicago Cubs and allowed four hits and a run in six innings while getting a no-decision in the Astros' 3-2 win.
Kazuo Matsui, Hunter Pence, and Michael Bourn had a hit apiece for the Astros in a losing effort.
"We got to figure out a way to score some runs," Astros manager Cecil Cooper said.
The Cardinals got on the board in the bottom of the fourth inning. Greene singled to left field to begin the frame. Following an Albert Pujols walk, Ludwick's single to left scored Greene. Pujols advanced to third, and Ludwick took second on the throw home. Duncan recorded the first out of the inning with a ground out, but Pujols scored on the play to put St. Louis ahead, 2-0.
St. Louis added a run in the home half of the fifth. A Greene single to center with two outs knocked in Colby Rasmus, who walked to leadoff the frame.
Lohse cruised through the game, retiring 24 straight batters at one point after allowing a leadoff single to Matsui to begin the game. Bourn started the ninth with a base hit. With runners on first and second, Lohse got Lance Berkman to fly out to end the game.

Miss Tiff Reads
Friday, October 24, 2014
Back in the Saddle
I know that my posting has been sporadic at best these last three months, and you've likely guessed that it's because of my baby. Darn adorable little time suck! I just don't get to do that reading that I used to do (or the sleeping, showering, eating, cleaning, etc, etc for that matter). But now that my little girl is the big 12 weeks, life around the house is getting a little easier. Not that I'll get to do more reading, but hopefully I'll be able to cobble together some posts about the book life, or the mom life, or just life to keep this thing going. Because the truth is, I like Miss Tiff Reads. It connects to me a part of my life that I've been desperately missing, and anything to connect you to your former life once you have a little person is very important!
So, I'm back in the saddle of this whole blog thing. And to everyone that missed me, I'm sorry I was gone so long, but you know-life got in the way.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: The Cure for Dreaming
The Cure for Dreaming
By Cat Winters
Amulet Books, 2014
Reviewed from NetGalley
Audience: Grades 8 to 12
Expected Publication Date: October 14, 2014
Olivia Mead is a headstrong girl living with her dentist father in Portland, Oregon, 1900. She goes to a hypnotist show on her birthday, October 31, and is brought up on stage by the charismatic Henri Reverie and taken under. Her submissiveness and cooperation catch the attention of playboy Percy Adkins and word gets back to her father that she was the perfect subject for hypnosis. He decides that maybe hypnosis is the answer to his troubles, as Olivia has started having dreams above her station-of wanting to vote, attend college, and be independent like her mother. Dr. Mead contracts Henri Reverie to hypnotize Olivia into being the ideal daughter. What Henri instructs her to do however is see the world as it truly is, and what Olivia sees are monsters and fading women and other terrifying sights. Amidst her visions, Olivia is trying to find her voice in the world, while men want to take that voice away. This is a frightening book that addresses history and women's rights while still remaining spellbinding. Truly magical.
Fresh off the success of In the Shadow of Blackbirds, Winters brings another amazing book that weaves the paranormal with history. It is well worth noting that Olivia was not nearly as headstrong in the being of the book as her father thought, rather it was his actions that made her crave a voice even more. And Dr. Mead is a frightening man--his dentistry scenes may be the most chilling in the book. Dentistry in the 1900's was little more than torture, and some of what he did to get his way is positively shocking. At one point, I did not know if what Olivia was seeing in her father's study was another gruesome vision or the truth.
Olivia begins a partnership with Henri in order to overcome his hypnosis and still appease her father, all while still fighting for women's rights. This partnership turns romantic, but thankfully, Olivia does not lose her way in the relationship. I think that I was most impressed by how Winters resolved that plot line.
There is such richness in the book that I can't begin to cover it all. The parallels with Dracula, the fight for voting rights and women's place in society, the hypnosis and visions. It was all wonderfully crafted. Another perfect book for a cool fall evening.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: Thursdays with the Crown
Thursdays with the Crown
By Jessica Day George
Bloomsbury USA Children's, 2014
Reviewed from NetGalley
Audience: Grades 4 to 6
Expected Publication Date: October 7, 2014
Celie and her friends have been transported to the original home of the Castle Glower, the Glorious Arkover, and have no way of getting back home. This land is sparsely inhabited by people, but surprisingly inhabited by griffins, including Rufus' parents. After splitting up, the gang finds an Arkish wizard, but they aren't sure if they can trust him, and it turns out they can't. When Celie escapes his cave, she finds a Hathelocke wizard, who is just as shady. Once the gang is reunited, they discover the Tomb of the Builder and bring back some relics that may help their father speak to the castle, that is if they can ever get home. The plot continues to twist and turn and double back on itself until there is finally a conclusion and another hint at a following book.
Tuesdays at the Castle was excellent and inventive. Wednesdays in the Tower was entertaining although involved. Thursdays with the Crown is forced and confusing. I sincerely hope that George lets the Castle Glower rest.
What bothered me most about this book was that it focused more on a centuries old rivalry between the Arkish and the Hathelockes that was never resolved, although it is implied that is might be roughly resolved by the marriage of Celie's parents. So much of the book was just the children trying to figure out who built the castle and why, and who actually has rights to it. I guess this is an important part of the castle's back story, but at the same time, it really slowed down the story. What also bothered me was once they discovered the relics, they seemed to take a strange hold on Rolf which was never explained. I felt like many things were written so that readers would just have to accept that it worked, rather than showing why this needed to happen.
Also the ending was unusually tidy in my opinion, although I guess in the other books that was also the case. After pages and pages of complicated history and adventuring, the castle goes back, the plague is cured and everyone goes home happy with a griffin. Sorry-spoilers.
I should do a better job of hiding my displeasure with this book, but when the first book was so much fun, I'm very disappointed to see the following books cheapen that experience. I would highly recommend Tuesdays at the Castle to readers, and then I would recommend that they stop. The rest of the series just does not seem to live up to that first book, and if not for the fact that I continue to find copies on NetGalley, I would have given up by now too.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: The Fourteenth Goldfish
The Fourteenth Goldfish
By Jennifer L. Holm
Random House Books for Young Readers, 2014
Reviewed from NetGalley
Audience: Grades 4 to 8
Expected Publication Date: August 26, 2014
Ellie's life is certainly different now that she is in 5th grade and attending middle school. Her best friend is only concerned about the volleyball team and Ellie is struggling to fit in without her. To make matters worse, her grandfather recently discovered a way to make himself decades younger, so now she is attending classes with her 76, going on 14,-year old grandfather, Melvin, in tow. Melvin is trying to figure out how he can break into his old lab to save this ground-breaking discovery, and trying to get along with his theatre-loving daughter, Ellie's mother, all while inspiring a love of science in Ellie. With the help of goth-boy Raj, this trio makes some breakthroughs, both scientifically and ethically, that will surprise and delight readers. A great book that mixes science and heart.
I really hope that I don't have to tell the Caudill committee that this book is excellent. They love Jennifer Holm, so I hope they pick up on this one all by themselves. In some ways, The Fourteenth Goldfish reminded me a lot of Frank Einstein. It uses real scientific facts in fiction as a way to get readers thinking more about the sciences, but it does it in a way that is fun, not too forced. Melvin regularly referenced other famous scientists like Sauk and Oppenheimer, and made their stories seem so interesting that I bet some readers at least Google them. Plus, the whole ethical debt about de-aging and the atomic bomb was very interesting. I love how Holm was able to question the ethics of science in a simple way.
But aside from the science, this is a book about growing pains. Ellie misses her friend, and she's excited to make a new friend in Raj. Ellie has great instincts about relationships, which she can relate back to science. And the adolescent Melvin is pretty funny, and I'm sure a few readers will wish that their own grandfathers could becomes teens for a day just to get the same experience.
This book is getting quite a bit of well-deserved buzz and I hope that all readers find it lives up to the hype.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: Greenglass House
Greenglass House
By Kate Milford
Clarion Books, 2014
Reviewed from Netgalley
Audience: Grades 4 to 8
Publication Date: August 26, 2014
Milo lives in the Greenglass Inn, an inn for smugglers, and since smuggling tends to be a more fair weather trade, it's usually empty in the winter, but not today. Five mysterious guests show up just days before Christmas and can't say exactly when they'll leave or why they are there. Making up the five guests are a professor, a wealthy woman, two spry young women, and a dark stranger. Milo's parents call in extra help in the form of a cook and baker, and a young girl comes with them. Milo and the girl Meddy strike up a friendship and begin a role playing game to find out why everyone is here. In the game they are Negret and Sirin, two characters that are much more than themselves, but still very much the same people. As items start going missing, and even more guests show up, the mystery grows, until finally, Milo asks everyone to tell a story for entertainment and legends of the smuggler Doc Holystone start to collide with myths of the roamers and many other odd tales until, at last, everyone's motivations are revealed and Milo, or Negret, must find a way to save them all.
I'd seen advertisements for this book here and there, but it wasn't until I read a review on A Fuse #8 Production that I really took notice. Elizabeth Bird likened it to The Westing Game. I personally love The Westing Game, and I've heard of several mystery books before that it's like The Westing Game, but all fall short, until now. Greenglass House is a mystery in the vein of TWG, and so much more.
Milo is a great character. He's shy and anxious and really needs to be the brave and daring Negret. He learns so much about himself as Negret, and lets himself explore his familial heritage while he's playing Negret without guilt. See, Milo is adopted, he's Chinese and his parents are Caucasian, so it's obvious that he's adopted, and while he loves his parents, he can't help but wonder about his birth family. As Negret, he builds a rich backstory without feeling like he's betraying his parents. And he gains confidence by playing this role.
Aside from the main plot of so many guests, so little information, there are rich myths woven within the story. I am a big sucker for the story within a story and Milford does this masterfully. It's much like Where the Mountain Meets the Moon in that all of the stories seem random at first, but the reader starts seeing connections and I was getting really excited to see just where they would all connect.
SPOILER ALERT BELOW!! Please if you plan on reading this book, skip the next paragraph.
The one thing that bothered me was the ghost. I caught on pretty quick about the ghost and it made me so angry. It felt like a really trite plot device. I don't consider myself the most savvy reader, after all, I was floored by the ending to We Were Liars and after finishing that book, I felt silly for not seeing the ending sooner. No, I felt like this ghost was too simply drawn and it bothered me. I wasn't supposed to catch on this quickly! I was mad for maybe 100 pages, then the story became too good and I let it slide, and in the end, I understood and appreciated why it was done that way, although I still say that it good have been a little more vague.
I received this book from NetGalley, but not as a Kindle download that will stay with me until my Amazon account dies. Nope, I had to download this on my computer, and those downloads only last 55 days-random I know. Smart move publisher. I feel so in love with this book and everything about it that I must own it. That's how good it is. I've read it, but I want to read it again, and again, and listen to the audiobook just for fun. Just like The Westing Game.
For a great mystery with twists, turns, legends, and heart, Greenglass House is complete perfection.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: Sisters
By Raina Telgemeier
Scholastic, 2014
Reviewed from NetGalley
Audience: Grades 5 to 8
Publication Date: August 26, 2014
In this companion book to Smile, the dynamics of Raina's family are tested as the family goes on a week long road trip to Colorado from San Francisco. Anyone that remembers traveling in the 90's with no air conditioning will feel the narrators pain. Mostly, it's a story about Raina and her sister, Amara and their contentious relationship. At first, Raina is excited to have a sister, but the screaming baby that her parents bring home does not exactly fit the bill. And it doesn't help that Amara turns out to be extremely headstrong with a love for reptiles. While the two seem like they are vastly different, they are actually quite similar, the curse of all sisters! The story is told through the main plot of the road trip and flashbacks to the past to fill in some of the story. Fans of Smile will certainly love Sisters.
As a sister, the younger sister, I could strongly relate to this book. Plus, Raina is about my age, so there's something rather nostalgic in these pages for me. I would recommend that 30-somethings read this book for fun because you will inevitably see yourself in the pages.
Like Smile, Sisters seems to be as much about family life as it is about humor. I think that is part of the appeal for readers. It's not just a story, it was someone's life, but since it's presented as fiction, and presented as a graphic novel, it makes all of life's funny little stories that much more interesting. I think that this type of story works so well as a graphic novel because the author is able to use the illustrations to make everything more over the top and really express how the characters are feeling and acting.
I pulled this book from NetGalley, so I was reading an unfinished, mostly black and white digital edition. I can only imagine from the few full color illustrations how amazing this book is going to be in its finished state. I highly recommend this book for all fans of Smile and Drama, and for any adult that needs a little taste of the past.
Happy Reading!

Book Review: Shiloh
By Phyllis Reynolds Naylor
Antheneum Books for Young Readers
Reviewed from e-book
Audience: Grades 4 to 8
Publication Date: September 30, 1991
While on a walk on his family's property, Marty comes across a sad-looking beagle dog. It's obvious that this dog has been out on his own for a while, and was previously hurt by his owner, so Marty lets the dog follow him home. But his dad knows this dog belongs to their neighbor Judd, and furthermore, they don't have the money to care for a dog. When Marty returns the dog, Judd is cruel to him and kicks him, and Marty decides if the dog runs away again, he won't bring him back. And that's just what happens. Now, Marty is keeping a secret from his parents and trying to keep the dog, Shiloh, safe and happy while figuring out a way to keep him out of Judd's hands. This is a touching story about one boy's love for a dog.
Shiloh is a classic story, having won the Newbery in 1992 and becoming a fixture in the dog cannon. I'd never read it, but felt compelled to because of my own beagle dog, Lucy. That might have been a mistake. Being the hormonal pregnant woman that I am, plus my love for my own beagle, I found the passages about animal cruelty hard to digest. It wasn't gratuitous but it was a little too much for me to handle. I can't imagine someone treating a dog that way, although I did grow up in a hunting community so I'm sure that my community was rife with this type of story. Luckily, there are two other books that follow Shiloh and Marty, so I knew that somehow it would work out in the end.
I think the biggest strength of this book is the setting, the hills of West Virginia which are beautiful but cruel. The people in this book have very little, as evidenced by Marty's family not being able to afford a dog. And while this book is over 20 years old, even at that time many families were more prosperous than Marty's family. It recalls a time and place where neighbors were more helpful, but also kept quiet about each other in a protective fashion, like not reporting someone to the game warden, again, something I can relate to from my own childhood. The dialogue is slow and measured, exactly how you would imagine it to be in a small, sleepy town, and there is a certain innocence in the setting despite the overall theme of animal cruelty.
But finally, Marty breaks through Judd's exterior as he is working to earn Shiloh. Judd did not have a good childhood and that, in part, explains why he is incapable of being kind to his dogs, or anyone really. Reader's will still hate Judd, but they at least have a reason why he is so cruel. He's rather like Gar-Face in The Underneath, a cruel human who has been made that way.
While this isn't a dead dog book, it's close. Hopefully most readers will be able to focus on the love that Marty and his family give to Shiloh and not the cruelty. It's a classic book for a reason and will still resonate with readers.
Happy Reading!

Absolute Software anti-theft technology embedded in new ASUS computers
Company launches its B50 business notebooks with Computrace solution embedded in firmware
Vancouver, Canada: October 16, 2008 – Absolute Software Corporation, the leading provider of firmware-based, patented, Computer Theft Recovery, Data Protection and Secure Asset Tracking solutions announced today that the popular ASUS B50 line of business notebooks now provide embedded support for Absolute's mobile computer anti-theft and management solution Computrace. Computrace is shipped in a non-active state and can be activated in the firmware by customers upon purchasing a subscription to Absolute's security services.
"Absolute's Computrace is an essential layer of security for our highly mobile notebook computers," said Kevin Huang, Senior Marketing Director of ASUS. "With Absolute embedded in the firmware, we can give our executive customers access to the recovery capabilities of Computrace so they can rest assured that their notebook and data are safe."
ASUS' B50 takes every consideration of the business executive's varied computing needs for power, reliability, mobility, and security into account.
The B50A offers additional levels of security with an integrated biometric fingerprint scanner and Trusted Platform Module (TPM) for secure login and encryption. These features help to ensure that data and transactions through the notebook are secure, yet remain efficient and easy to use.
With embedded support for Computrace, ASUS customers can fully benefit from subscriptions to Absolute's complete range of Computrace and Computrace LoJack for Laptops anti-theft and management solutions - with tamper-resistant, self-healing capabilities. Computrace delivers the ability to:
• Track and manage computers on the LAN or in the field
• Remotely delete sensitive information for regulatory compliance
• Physically recover lost or stolen computers
• Easily inventory all computers regardless of their location
• Remotely inventory software licenses
• Detect hardware changes or prohibited software installations
• Conduct post-theft forensic investigations into computer use
"ASUS is one of the world's top 10 notebook manufacturers. They are recognized for their expertise in creating notebooks for the mobile business executive; those who are frequent travelers and as a result, often find themselves in areas at high risk for theft," said John Livingston, Chairman and CEO of Absolute. "According to the Ponemon Institute, 53% of mobile professionals carry confidential information on their notebook computers.1 By providing the ability to delete files and identify if files have been accessed, Absolute is focused on providing comprehensive security for that sensitive information should a notebook become lost or stolen."
How Computrace Solutions Work
Computrace software is embedded in the firmware of computers from the world's leading computer manufacturers right at the factory for extreme tamper-resistance.2 The stealthy Computrace Agent is capable of surviving operating system re-installations, as well as hard-drive reformats, replacements and re-imaging. It can be activated by customers when they purchase a subscription with terms ranging from one to four years.

First, I would ask people like that if they would line up behind Dr Paul if Dr PAul happens to win the nomination. Newt Gingrich has said he would not.
Second, if the time comes around that Romney gets the nomination, I am going to propose that we have actually had a more conservative limitied govt over the past year than when we had a GOP pres, with or without GOP Congress. With a GOP House resolved to stand up for what is right (for whatever underlying motive) we actually have had 12 months of pretty small govt RELATIVE to Obama's first two years AND Bush's 8 years.
I will not vote for someone who doesn't give a lick about limited govt as prescribed in the constitution.

The drunk-punch frenetic shaking garage rock of Minneapolis band Fuck Knights (pictured) should be enough of a rock 'n' roll call to arms to bring out the family for this year's Drinksgiving at the Turf Club. But with polished rockabilly trio Reckless Ones backing, fresh from their supporting slot behind Tiger Army at the Octoberflame festival, the thing's a no-brainer. Now mix in the hell-on-wheels speed of strong-as-steel rockabilly opener Muddy Udders, and you have three headline-ready bands in one show, and more unadulterated libido than a cockfight in the basement of a Persian nightclub. The Flying Dorito Brothers to boot? Well, that's one hell of a lot to be thankful for.
